BIOCLEANBIOfilm management and CLEANing by leveraging fundamental understanding of biological, chemical and physical combined approaches. BIOCLEAN addresses the urgent need to create a sustainable training network across academia, industry and the healthcare sector which will fill the gap in Europe and beyond to produce highly skilled multi-disciplinary young scientists competent in chemistry, engineering and experimental wet lab biology. BIOCLEAN will deliver this network of young scientists who can apply their proven skill sets gained during the project life time to solve industrial and healthcare sector real life biofilm management challenges.BIO-CLEAN project (GA n° 722871) -H2020-EU.1.3.1.

BIOMIMETIC NEW BIO-INSPIRED PROCESSES AND PRODUCTS FROM RENEWABLE FEEDSTOCKSThe BIO-MIMETIC project will generate a new class of bio-inspired polymers via extraction of natural compounds from renewable resources.These polymers with novel properties will be produced through a new biological transformation route, involving environmentally friendly enzymatic processes, inspired by polymerisation processes in nature.The novel BIO-MIMETIC process-route will use renewable resources.New enzymes will be developed to transform bio-mass into bio-based polymers that can be conjugated or cross-linked into novel polymeric structures for consumer products.BIO-MIMETIC project (GA n° 282945) FP7 ENV.2011.3.1.9-1 [Eco-innovation]http://www.biomimetic-eu-project.eu/
